I went to my seat and saw my phone on the desk, Debby gold seemed to have left because she was no longer in the class, she probably must be looking for a way to get out of her mess.

I opened my phone and straight to my gallery, I looked for the video but I couldn't find it.

"The video is not here!"

"What do you mean it's not there? Let me check" Austin said.

"Are you sure you took a video of what happened? Or maybe you mistakenly erased it." Austin said.

"Or maybe just maybe you never made the video and you put your life in danger, you want to spice things up by saying Debby gold is responsible for Azyma's mother's death."

"I am not lying about this Austin you have to believe me."

"Then where is the video?"

"I don't know, maybe someone erased it from my phone."

"Who would want to do that? Alero—"

"Debby gold was the one that did it I am sure, I told her that I have evidence against her and it's in my phone so maybe she erased it while I was speaking to you."

"That seemed reasonable."

"I can't believe you are buying this Austin," Dinela said.

"Wait! I saved the video on Google photos and let me check it." I finally found the video, I decided to send it to Austin and I sent it to Kally too, in case Debby gold decides to erase it again.

"Here it is, take a look." Austin took it from me and took a look at it.

"Alero is right Dinela, Debby gold did it." Austin was about to hand me back my phone but Dinela snatched it from him.

"Let's see what evidence you show them after I erase it from your phone." I quickly rushed to get it from her but I was too slow.

"Deleted," Dinela said.

"What's wrong with you?" I asked bewildered. Thank God I already sent it to Austin, she thinks she is smart but I am smarter.

"Why do you want to get involved with Azyma, the police have got it in check."

"Now I see what's wrong you are insane, selfish, narrow-minded, I don't want to have anything to do with you, you are cold and heartless." 

"I have to agree with Alero on this one Dinela," Austin said.

"Fine, you can do whatever you want but don't say I didn't warn you." I snatched my cellphone from her as she said this, then took a sit on my chair, she left and took a sit on her seat so did Austin.

Now that we stopped arguing I could see some of our classmates glancing at us, I am sure there'll be rumors and gossip about what just happened.

I should have not told Debby gold I had proof against her, I made a big mistake by doing that, I should think before acting times it's just I was so excited.

"Everyone attention!" The teacher yelled. "Let's get started with today's class."

I listened attentively to all that was being said Till I remembered what Dinela told me, she said my mom asked her to keep tabs on me.

How could my mom do something like that, I'll confront her about it when I get home I am sure Dinela will tell my mom where I went yesterday. I was in a good mood today, I was so sure nothing could ruin my mood but Dinela just did that, I really should have not told Debby gold about it.

I'll go to Mrs. Amira's house and talk to her about it leaving out what Dinela said, if Mrs. Amira finds out that I lied to her about my mom allowing me to do all this she'll freak out and she won't allow me to help out anymore. I planned to go see Azyma but now I can't.

I have an idea, I'll tell her to come to pick me up and will then ask her nicely to take me to the hospital, then I'll tell her all that happened on the way to the hospital, leaving the part where Austin told me my mom asked him to keep tabs in me of course.

I was leaving school when I got a text from my dad.

Dad: I won't be able to come to pick you up from school, take a taxi home.

Me: I don't have money to take a taxi

Dad: you can pay him once you get home, call your mom when you are almost home, she'll wait outside the house with the money.

Me: okay.

Dad: so sorry hon.

Me: it's fine.

Dad: please be careful and go home immediately you are done with your school punishment.

Me: Okay, bye.

Dad: bye.

I wanted to tell my dad that I have been relieved of my punishment but I decided against it, my dad not coming to pick me up is a sign that luck was on my side, I don't have to look for an excuse so he won't come to pick me up. I would call Mrs. Amira and tell her that my dad can't come pick me up and then ask her something, what if she does not check her messages, I will take my chances.

Me: Good afternoon ma'am.

I waited for her to reply, and after a minute or two I got impatient, why is she taking so long to reply.

Mrs. Amira: Afternoon how are you?

I was relieved when I saw her reply.

Me: I am okay but I have a situation.

Mrs. Amira: what's the problem.

Me: it's not a big problem per se, my dad can't come pick me up from school, I saw his message a while ago and I have tried calling him he is not picking up, I also tried calling my mom but her phone is switched off, now I am stranded in school.

Mrs. Amira: that's terrible, I would come to pick you up but I am busy at work and will be done in about forty minutes, if you can wait then I'll come to pick you up when I am done.

Me: I can't exactly go anywhere so I'll wait for you, thank you.

Mrs. Amira: don't mention, will be there in about an hour.

Me: please text me when you are here.

Mrs. Amira: okay.

Me: yeah.

Thank God she agreed now I'll wait in school for an hour doing what? I went to seat under the tree in the school compound. I just sat there and was chatting with Kally on WhatsApp. I was supposed to go see Kally today, but I just have a lot to do, will have to go next time and I'll have to give her a reason I sent the video to her, I just hope she is on my side.

Kally: girl why did you send me that video? 🙃🙃 I can't believe Debby gold could do such a thing and😖😖😲 how exactly did you get the video? 😅😅🤔🤔🤔🤔

Me: I sent it to you so you'll see exactly how Debby gold is and you'll be careful with her😓😓 I always knew she was an awful person but I also was shocked when I saw the video😧😱😱 and as for how I got the video I have my ways😎😎😎

No one needs to know that I was present at the crime scene but my classmates already know but whatever.

Kally: okay, anyways do you know that immediately I dropped the call after you called me yesterday your mom called, I didn't even get a chance to tell my mom.

Me: really😱😱 what then happens?

Kally: your mom is smart she called the land line😗😗, my mom was about to pick but I quickly took it from her and told her it was a call for me😋😋, I picked up and said what you asked me to say😉😉 when my mom asked I told her what you told me, I also put in that your mom had a frail heart😫 hope you don't mind that😢😢

Me: not really🙃🙃 thanks for covering up for me💖💖 and protecting my mom's heart 😍😍

Kally: you're welcome🤗🤗 thanks for notifying me about Debby gold, I gotta go now, byee💗💗

Now that Kally was taken care of I am a bit relieved, I wondered when Austin would see the video, probably... Before I could complete my thoughts I saw Austin's message on WhatsApp.

Austin: I thought Dinela deleted the video, how come you sent it to me?

Me: I sent it when I found the video on Google photos just in case before I showed it to you.

Austin: Okay, I don't understand Dinela anymore, I think she's working for or with Debby gold, I couldn't find any other reasonable explanation for why she would delete the video, I am just glad you were smart enough to send it to me before she deleted it, am I the only one you sent it to?

Me: no, I also sent it to Mrs. Amira.

Austin: Okay, that's good.

We kept chatting after that, Mrs. Amira's call came in and she told me, she said she was in the parking lot, an hour was up already.

I carried my back and went to the parking lot, I spotted her car and got in.

"Thanks for coming to pick me up," I told her as I got in.

"It's nothing compared to what you did for me yesterday, and you were smart enough to video everything thank you." She said as we drove out of the parking lot.

"I sent you the video for a specific reason." 

"Yeah, to expose Debby gold."

"Yes but no, I sent it because I knew that it might not be safe on my phone, have you shown the police the video?"

"No, not yet I was quite busy, I was even supposed to travel but I was excused because of what happened."

"Okay, you need to show Mr. Akhila the video immediately, why don't you send it to him now?!"

"Because I am driving, why are you in such haste?"

"First Debby gold deleted the video that I had, then Dinela deleted the one on my Google photos, you need to send it to Mr. Akhila immediately."

"Don't turn here, take the left turn."

"Why? that is not the way to your house."

"That's because I want you to take me to the hospital, I want to see how Azyma is doing, I won't belong."

"Do your parents know you are going there?"

"I have left my mom and dad a message, I know they won't be upset because I am only going to see Azyma and I won't take long."

"Okay sure, so as you were saying?"

"Send me the video then, just in case." 

"I am driving later I'll send it." After that, we drove in comfortable silence.

I am so happy that I was going to go see Azyma in the hospital, we drove in silence and I was doing flips in my head out of joy.

Suddenly the car stopped, I looked in front and I saw a massive building and at the top is the National hospital.

"We are here," I announced surprised, so soon as the hospital that was close to school? Maybe I was in my head the whole time.

"I can see that." 

"Let's be quick I do not want you to be home late."

We entered the building and went to the third floor using an elevator and took a turn, when we got there I saw three rooms, one straight ahead and two opposite each other on each side.

"The room ahead is Axymah's room." Mrs. Amira informed me.

"Okay." I walked on trembling legs to the front of the room, I was nervous and hesitated to open the door.

"The door does not bite, open it and go see her we don't have the whole day." Mrs. Amira complained.

I opened the door and I got in, I saw the state Azyma was in and I was horrified, she had bandages all over her except her hand, I couldn't see her legs because it was covered so its probably only the top part of her body that was bandaged she also had an oxygen mask stuck to her face, I could make out some cuts on the part of her face that was not bandaged.

I unconsciously walked closer to her and a tear fell from my eye, before I knew it I started to sob.

"Azyma, I am sorry for all the things Dinela did to you, you should have told us, you should have told us Dario was assaulting you, why did you not tell anyone or say anything?! Do you know what?! Myself, Mrs. Amira, her husband, and Mr. Akhila have put him behind bars, he was in jail, he would never hurt you anymore." I placed my hand on hers.

"You can wake up now, you can open your eyes, Dario can't hurt you anymore, he won't ever be able to come close to you because he was behind bars so you need to get up open your eyes please I beg you, Dinela has changed completely, she now speaks ill of you and she does not care about whatever happens to you.

She is so cold-hearted, Debby gold will also join Dario behind bars very soon, don't worry when you wake up I'll tell you everything, right now I need you to wake up you are safe now." I waited for her to move any part of her body but she didn't move.

"Can you please leave now, she needs to rest." The nurse said as she walked in.

What more rest those she needs? She had been asleep for almost two weeks now, I thought to myself. I stood up and was leaving, I turned around expecting her to move any part of her body or open her eyes but that did not happen, I guess this is the difference between reality and movies.

I left the room and I saw Mrs. Amira standing outside but she was facing away from the room so she didn't see me when I got out of the room, I quickly wiped my tears away and got her attention by calling her name.

"Mrs. Amira?! I am done seeing her, can you take me home now?"

"Yes of course but give me a moment I want to go take a whizz here hold my purse I'll be right back." She left and I took out her phone from her purse, It was already opened so I looked for the video on her phone and I quickly sent it to my phone via xender when I was done I kept it back in her purse.

"I am done let's go." She got back and took her purse from me, I walked next to her and we exited the hospital, we were on our way to my house, 'Azyma please wake up soon was my last thought before I dosed off.
